Maintenance levels are 'a-changin'.Slowly, but surely, the Direct Support Plus (DS+) program is going away. It started disappearing in the 4th quarter of FY03 and will no longer exist by the end of FY06. So what does this have to do with you, tank mechanics mechanics, branch of physics concerned with motion and the forces that tend to cause it; it includes study of the mechanical properties of matter, such as density, elasticity, and viscosity. ? While most of the DS+ tasks will revert re·vert v. 1. To return to a former condition, practice, subject, or belief. 2. To undergo genetic reversion. to depot-level, some have become field maintenance tasks to be performed by mechanics in MOS (1) (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) See MOSFET. (2) (Mean Opinion Score) The quality of a digitized voice line. It is a subjective measurement that is derived entirely by people listening to the calls and scoring the results from 63A and 44B. Some of the tasks were already moved to MOS 63A with the release of TACOM TACOM Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command (US Army) TACOM Tactical Communications TACOM Tactical Command TACOM Tank-Automotive and Armament Command TACOM Theater Army Command TACOM Tactical Army Command TACOM Tactical Army COM Maintenance Advisory Message (MAM MAM methylazoxymethanol. ) 01-05. The remainder were authorized--effective 1 Mar 03--by TACOM MAM 03-005. Once your unit has been converted from DS+, there will no longer be any AGT AGT antiglobulin test. 1500 engine automotive maintenance tasks for MOS 63H on the M1-series tank. Automotive maintenance on the tank will either be done by the on-system mechanic (MOS 63A) or the depot depot /de·pot/ (de´po) (dep´o) a body area in which a substance, e.g., a drug, can be accumulated, deposited, or stored and from which it can be distributed. . The 63A school is now teaching all the tasks listed in MAM 003-05 in both AIT and BNCOC BNCOC Basic Non-Commissioned Officer Course . So the Chief of Ordnance has encouraged units to begin allowing 63A multi-capable mechanics to perform those tasks immediately.
